A VW w/ a VR6- that can't handle w/ the stock suspension at all!
A good set of aftermarket suspension components will fix that! (Progress currently makes a set for a B18 swap into the older civic; maybe they'll do one for this, if it becomes popular) Or you could go the cheap way & pull the F. sway bar & put a stiffer R. sway bar.

Rep Power: 374 The K24 has the same RPM range as the K20A3 so its not that bad. But I would rather look into getting a TSX K24 that has Vtec and get a hondadata to flash to help that out.

The K24 engine will actually become far more common place than the K20s because they not only come in the CRV, but will be in the TSX, Element, and of course the ever popular Accord. I believe there will be 300,000+ cars with K24s by years end on the road.
The future is bright.

brian, will hasport ever make a mount kit that doesn't require the subframe?
if not, will the accord/crv/tsx subframe be compatible like the EP/RSX's subframes?
and will anybody be making an aftermarket subframe?

Not Likely, to do the swap without the subframe would require redesigned and much more expensive front and rear mounts and a custom header.
Call Honda and check the part numbers for the subframes on the RSX, Civic Si, Accord, CRV and TSX. See if any of them mattch. If they are not the same, you will have to wait until I get some and check to see if they interchange. Maybe over the next 6 months I will be able to get to it.
